Why only one email per identity for autofill?

Hey tmakaro! If there were multiple fillable email address fields, then the extension would have to take extra time to find these fields, compare them to the fields on a form, and see if they should be filled. This can make the extension slower. It could also require users to take more steps to fill their items, and it could also lead to more filling problems across various forms (especially those that are not coded well). So for us there have been a lot of drawbacks in taking this kind of approach and we have not yet implemented it.

That said, I do understand where you're coming from, and I have added your feedback to an internal feature request that we have for this. We are always interested in bettering our product, and we appreciate you letting us know where you think we can improve.

Let us know if you have any other questions!

Nope still a problem. I really hate having extra items in my vault. The 1 email per identity just seems like a useless restriction. Like what use case benefits from it?

1P_Tommy Collections are interesting, but I only have 1 vault. This is because the family administrator can grant access to any extra vaults that I create. Or at least that used to be the case, has that been changed?

I like to think of the identity as my personal presence at that time. I have several setup for work, home, as well as relatives and so on. Autofill fills in one swoop and you are filling the data as is. My identity contains my most used email address.

If you wish you could use something like a snippet expander (3rd party) and create several shortcuts for each email. e.g. myep myew and so forth. I have used that method and it works and keeps me sane from needing to look through potentially a lot of identifies. In such as situation you would leave the email address blank within the identity.

You might also be able to work with collections to trim any suggestions. Use collections to create custom groups of vaults
